WARNING
EXPLANATION
PLEASE READ BEFORE USE
KEG OPERATION
1. NEVER exceed 60 P.S.I.
1. Most domestic draft beers are dispensed using a pressure of 1214 P.S.I. and most stout beers require a pressure of 30-40 P.S.I.
Pressures above 50 P.S.I. will release the built-in pressure relief
valve (PRV).
2. ALWAYS use a keg coupler and gas
pressure regulator equipped with a pressure relief valve (PRV).
2.
If the regulator PRV failed, the keg coupler PRV will release preventing the CO2 from reaching the keg.
3. NEVER try to remove the valve in the keg.
3.
For liability reasons, keg valve installation and removal tools are
available only to breweries. It is important only trained professionals perform maintenance and installation of valves. Improper
installation can result in possible injury.
CO2 GAS
1. ALWAYS connect CO2 gas cylinder to
regulator. NEVER connect gas cylinder
directly to keg.
1.
The gas in the CO2 cylinder is 800-1000 P.S.I. and the keg is built
to only with stand pressure to 60 P.S.I.
2.
2.
Gas cylinders can be unstable with the regulator mounted. The
regulator may break off if the cylinder falls on it. Dropping the cylinder may break the cylnder valve off and release the pressurized
gas.
3.
If it becomes difficult to breathe and your head starts to ache, high
levels of CO2 (carbon dioxide) may be present in the area. LEAVE
THE ROOM IMMEDIATELY.
ALWAYS secure gas cylinder in an
upright position. NEVER drop or throw
gas cylinder.

3. ALWAYS ventilate area after a CO2 leak.
CLEANING CHEMICAL
Beer line cleaner (CFP-1) when mixed with water is a clear, odorless liquid containing sodium carbonate.
1.
ALWAYS use cleaning chemical with the
manual cleaning bottle.
1.
The manual cleaning bottle is the most effective method for using
the beer line cleaner. It creates the turbulent flow necessary to
release beer stone, bacteria, and yeast build up in the beer line.
2.
ALWAYS wear safety glasses to protect
eyes and rubber gloves for skin protection. ALWAYS wash hands with soap and
water after using chemical.
2.
Although CFP-1 is not caustic, the chemical can irritate eyes and
skin.
3.
ALWAYS thoroughly rinse beer line and
equipment. ALWAYS dispose of used
chemical in accordance with federal and
local regulations.
3.
To ensure the freshest beer taste, flush chemical from beer line,
coupler and faucet completely with cold water before re-tapping
keg.
CALL physician or poison control center if product is swallowed. If ingested, drink large quantities of water to
dilute chemical.

Where can I get a CO2 cylinder filled?
Inquire with the store you are getting your kegs from for a local source.
Another option is to look in your phone book under Fire Extinguishers or Fire
and Safety Equipment. Companies that refill fire extinguishers will be able to
fill CO2 cylinders.
Stout beers such as Guinness, require a mixed gas for proper dispensing.
For more information, see the FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) page at
MicroMatic.com.
The CO2 cylinder and regulator are usually placed inside
one of the corners of the refrigerator. The CO2 cylinder and
regulator can be located outside, with the gas line brought
through a drilled hole. It is important the cylinder be kept in
an upright position to operate efficiently. Use a chain to

Keg, Temperature, Pressure, and Tapping
Set Temperature:
Serve Draft
Beer: 38ºF
What temperature do I need to store draft beer at?
Most domestic draft beer is not pasteurized, so it must be kept cold. The temperature of the beer must
be maintained between 36-38°F all the way to the point of dispense. Temperatures above 38°F will cause
foam and promote sour/cloudy beer.
The air temperature in the refrigerator can fluctuate greatly when the door is opened. Check the “liquid”
temperature of the beer by placing a glass of water in the refrigerator with a thermometer in it. Allow the
water to chill for 24 hours, for an accurate reading of the “liquid” temperature.
with thermometer
Additionally, if the beer is being dispensed away from the refrigerator, the temperature of the dispensed
beer should be monitored. This is to make sure the 36-38°F temperature is being maintained all the way
to the point of dispense. To check the dispense temperature, simply pour a beer into glass and use a thermometer to read the temperature.

Remove regulator from empty cylinder “E”.
With cylinder valve “G” in closed position, reattach regulator to

Open valve “G” all the way. (This is important because the cylinder
valve seals in two places.)

HOW MANY KEGS OF BEER CAN BE DISPENSED OUT OF A CO2 TANK?
As a general rule of thumb, it takes about a 1/4 Lb of CO2 to dispense a 1/4 barrel of beer and a 1/2 Lb
of CO2 to dispense a 1/2 barrel of beer. The table below lists the approximate number of kegs dispensed
from each size of CO2 cylinder.

How To Pour The Perfect Glass Of Beer
Temperature: 36-38º F
Quick Checklist:
Pressure: 12-14 PSI
Clean: Before New Keg
Ready to pour: Start with a beer clean glass that has been wetted in cold water.
1.
Place the glass at a 45°angle,
one inch below the faucet. Do
not let the glass touch the
faucet. Open the faucet all
the way.
2.
After the glass has reached
half full, gradually bring the
glass to an upright position.
3.
Let the remaining beer run
straight down the middle. This
insures proper release of CO2
by producing a 3/4" to a 1"
foam head.
4. Close the faucet completely
and quickly.

Cleaning Components
Regular cleaning of the faucet, beer line, and keg coupler is extremely important. If this is not performed, the beer will
foam. Additionally bacteria, yeast, mold, and beer stone will build up and quickly degrade the quality of draft beer. Routine
cleaning is essential to maintain quality and fresh taste.
Residential Applications: cleaning should be performed after every keg or at a minimum of every two weeks.

Routine Maintenance and Inspection
Keg Coupler
After cleaning it is an excellent opportunity to check the probe o-rings (102-526) and bottom seal (102-521) on the keg
coupler are in good condition. Verify the probe o-rings on the keg coupler are properly lubricated (with a food grade lubricant (FT101L) to allow the coupler probe to move freely; this prevents wear and tear when the keg coupler is tapped and
untapped on the keg.
Faucet
Check the friction washer (4308) , coupling washer (4318), and shaft seat (4324) on the faucet are in good condition.
